    I recommend IcoFX: http://icofx.ro/

    It lets you edit the different images of the ICO file. I recommend creating your icon in Photoshop, then converting it to ico with Icofx.

    I would suggest you not to download any plugin. Instead, you can save your file as normal (let's say png) and convert it online. For example here http://tools.dynamicdrive.com/favicon/ (first result in google searching 'favicon generator')
    This one allows png and gif conversions.

    And everything with no downloads needed I think it's much more convenient and of course easier.

    I'd second miguelkp. Save it first as an high-quality png, then convert it online.
